Byte was created by the
Mad Thinker to be ten times more powerful than his
Gammadroid predecessors after absorbing sonic energy from
Klaw (Ulysses Klaw), who wanted to relinquish his powers, but the process was interrupted by
Lyra and the She-Hulk, looking to apprehend the last of the criminal
Intelligencia. When the She-Hulks destroyed the Thinker's Switzerland lab, the unfinished Byte attacked but was defeated when She-Hulk forcibly used Klaw's power against it.
